Speaking of James Cameron's X-Men movie; not long after beloved actor Bob Hoskins passed away at the age of 71, The Wrap unearthed comments about the dream X-Men project of Chris Claremont, who has written a number of X-Men story arcs, including X-Men: Days Of Future Past. Long before Bryan Singer rounded up Hugh Jackman, Halle Berry and co. for 2000's X-Men, Claremont was dreaming of his ideal X-Men movie, wherein Bob Hoskins would be his Wolverine. Now, this might sound kind of insane when you look at Hoskins and his short and husky physique versus the pure muscle ridiculousness that is Hugh Jackman's Wolverine. However, it's worth remembering that in the comics, Wolverine was long depicted as short, intense, and uncultivated. With that as the casting breakdown, old school Hoskins actually seems the perfect fit.
